Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Some users may want to retrieve the point clouds for a geographic. Each Mapillary image has an associated point cloud in the sfm_cluster field.
Describe the solution you'd like
There are two ways to allow a user to retrieve this:
a list of links
a list of point cloud objects
The function could be something like get_point_clouds(bbox,links=false) which does the following:
checks if bbox includes 5000 or more response items (if so, it is maxxed out, we need smaller bbox)
if not maxxed out, get all the images in the bbox with fields=sfm_cluster
if links=false (default) run a loop, for each image, do a get request for the sfm_cluster URL, and append to a list
return the list of sfm_cluster data objects
if links=true, then just return a list of the URLs, do not request the data
if bbox too big in step 2, then split into 4 smaller bboxes, or warn user to simply use a smaller bbox
Describe alternatives you've considered
It might be good to just request using the tiles, the way we get images from a bbox, but I am not certain that these images via tiles have the sfm_cluster URL, so it would not work
Additional context
The point cloud should be in .ply file format, but this is not important, just retrieving the objects lets the user make use of them (they would use it with the OpenSfM library)

Exactly same request from my side.. Just how we can download images, can we download the point clouds too (not just for a single image, but for a large area(like bbox approach))
